Club Vivanova branches out

Afterwork apero in Nice

UPDATE 10 May 2013: the event has been canceled.

Aperitivo Wine Bar, Club Vivanova's informal networking and wine tasting group, is organizing an after work evening in Nice, with return transport from Monaco.

The after work party takes place on Friday 10th May in MacMahon's Wine Bar on boulvard Jean Jaures in Nice. If you've been on the Cote d'Azur as long as us, you'll remember MacMahon's as one of Nice's Irish bars, but it was recently refurbished and is now a restaurant and wine bar, with a pleasant lounge area and leather sofas where you can savour your wine.

Aperitivo Wine Bar is featuring Bellvale Winery premium wines, presented by guest sommelier Alexandra Neyret, who recently trained at Bellvale in Gippsland, Victoria. The evening is hosted by Bradley Mitton, who has been successfully organizing gourmet food and wine evenings in Monaco since 2011. Wines to taste during the evening are:

  • Pinot Grigio 2012
  • Chardonnay 2009 and 2007
  • Pinot Noir Rose 2011
  • Pinot Noir 2008 and 2007

All are available on the restaurant's wine list, and to compliment the tasting, the restaurant is providing a selection of light nibbles.

Price for the evening, excluding transport to Nice, is 30 euros per person:

  • Friday 10th May, 19:00-21:00
  • MacMahon's, Nice

Return transport from Monaco is being organized for 20 to 40 euros per person, depending on numbers. Pick-up will be 18:00 and drop off 22:30 at the Fairmont Hotel lobby.
